Hi, everyone! Why are my fingers bleeding?

[BirdyBrain]

Hi, all.
To introduce myself, I'm the proud owner of a 5-month-old lovebird, Yoda, and we have become best buddies.

My top priority, in addition to keeping Yoda happy, engaged, and healthy, is to get him (or her) to STOP biting down on my fingers. The little bugger really likes to chomp down with his (her?) might. And I don't think he (she?) is holding back!

Anyway, I'll ping y'all with a few questions in the near future, and I thank you in advance for your experience, wisdom and assistance.

Chriping happily,
—Larry the Yodamaster
